Abstract: A system and method of interaction between a computer, such as a desktop computer, and a plurality of mobile devices include storing a first identifier on a first mobile device and the computer, and storing a second identifier on a second mobile device and the computer, wherein the second identifier is different than the first identifier. A set of settings are stored in the computer referenced to each stored identifier for each respective mobile device. Upon connection of one of the mobile devices to the computer, the identifier stored in the connected mobile device is compared with the identifier stored on the computer. Interaction between the connected mobile device and the computer is controlled as a function of the stored respective set of settings if corresponding identifiers are found.

Abstract: A system and method of interaction between a computer, such as a desktop computer, and a mobile device include storing an identifier on the mobile device and the computer. A set of settings are stored in the computer referenced to the identifier for the mobile device. A connection method is selected from a plurality of connection methods. Upon connection of the mobile device to the computer pursuant to the selected method, the identifier stored in the mobile device is compared with the identifier stored on the computer.
